February 26th and 27th hotfixes are here and include an important change to Profession Traders--they spawn in a fixed order so you don't get multiple Fur Traders in a row due to RNG! Learn more about dailies with our 6.1 Town Hall Daily Guide.

Trade Goods and Consumables should now be correctly deposited to bags assigned to favor those item types.

Fishing Changes

Rygarius

The change allowing Draenor fish to be filleted individually on the PTR was changed to allow them to be filleted in smaller stacks.

Small and normal sized fish caught in Draenor can now be filleted in a stack of 5 (down from 20 for small and 10 for normal). Filleting larger fish will still award more resources.

It's referring to Whiptail Fillet. More details on the database page and the guide/comments there.

What's the order of vendors? I got muradin on my 3 garrisons

Muradin is not a profession vendor so he's not part of the hotfix. The Profession vendors are Herb, Ore, Fur, Leather, and Dust.

If you do not have a profession vendor in your own Garrison, you can use the Group Finder tool to join another player's Garrison who does have that vendor up. More details in the Town Hall Guide.

That fishing change though... I really wish individual fish could be filleted, the fact that different sizes and types of fish exist and take up such a ridiculous amount of bag space has completely turned me off on fishing in Draenor whatsoever. So many stacks of 1-4 fish mucking up my reagent bank... MoP fishing was pretty cool imo, I especially liked being able to summon a Krakken to kill for good loot from fishing those giant pools at the fishing daily sites when I was bored. WoD feels like the opposite to me, while I like being able to fish up the required mats for healing pots, there seem to be more reasons not to fish than reasons to fish, bag/bank space always being such an issue.

I agree, not being able to fillet individual fish and the bag/bank space they take up is a problem that didn't exist until WoD.

For fishing, and bag space issues, you can just use Bladebone Hook added in 6.1, and the problem is solved.

Hotfixes are nice and all, but i have a question to ask. Is there someone here who can talk to Blizz staff and ask them if they intend to do any real changes to actually fix the game? They keep adding things for new people to catch up and some other useless things like music in garrison, tweets, a ton of epic rewards which most of us already have, also you can play with your toy collection and take selfies... Am i on facebook or something?Also, why dont they balance classes on PvP, or add something new for a change after so many years. Why Ashran still exists? Whats the point? No horde can do anything(on many servers), theres absolutely no reward, its boring and repetitive and i've seen us win 3 times in 3 months(the third was today and i was really surprised that we won, but after a bit i realized THERE WAS NO ALLY ANYWHERE, thats why we won). Furthermore every class is very similar to others(everyone has self heals, an execute likeability, a def abitllity, a good cd etc...). I will stop with the negatives of the xpansion, since i would have to write till tomorrow, to explain(there are somethings wrong with pve also), so my question is this. Has Blizz given up on the game and try to see how far it can go without any further effort?

Can we get a fix on Ferocious Bite damage? It no longer wastes combo points but does 37k crits for me in PVP, unless that's supposed to happened...

This is great if you only fish for fillets and never want to send the fish to alts for the daily garrison quests for eggs.

Relic and Bounty missions are no longer being offered.

Because..? Why say that and not explain why? Is there a bug issue with them, are they being taken out forever? Just a weird blank statement to make and not give any explanation for it.

I have yet to see anybody else comment saying this anywhere, so I thought I was just imagining things... but I have a fully-upgraded garrison and profession traders are just completely missing. None have ever showed up at my garrison, and I have checked every day since the day of the patch, and verified this by going to where they should be and using targeting macros... they are just not there, though they should be. Literally the only feature in 6.1 I was looking forward to taking advantage of, aside from improved Ashran que times.

No idea if any of this is connected, but I am also affected by the bug that removes the option to activate Twitter integration (because I have Real ID disabled) and my Goblin Workshop hasn't been offering the daily invention (just the nuke and work order) since 6.1 hit either. Everything else works the way it should, or at least the way it is working for everyone else.

Anybody else having any of these problems, or know if these are at least known issues?

It's kind of nice having the semi-transparent filter for free.

I find myself unable to transmog The Shatterer now for some reason. Hopefully this is just an 'oopsie' and will be fixed soon.
